China's Industrial Revolution And Economic Presence

"Professor Dutta in China's Industrial Revolution and Economic Presence has provided the reader with a valuable overview of the performance of the Chinese economy over the past quarter century and an analysis of what it will take for China to sustain rapid growth in the future. The book is particularly interesting in its discussion of China's relations with its neighbors and with the outside world more generally in this era of globalization. There is a valuable chapter comparing a potential Asian economic union with what made a union possible in Europe, another chapter looking at foreign direct investment into China, and a chapter on the foreign economic sector more generally. Professor Dutta brings to this study a background in economics and economic development generally, enriched by frequent visits to China that inform his analysis." Professor Dr Dwight H Perkins Harold Hitchings Burbank Professor of Political Economy Harvard University "This is a comprehensive, well-documented and insightful account of China's economic development and globalization based on years of research and many visits to China. I recommend it very highly to all interested scholars and readers." Professor Gregory Chow Princeton University
